2nd Ruffle Syndrome

By -


I've' fallen into Ruffleland and I can't get up!

I don't make socks currently because you have to make 2.
Feels just like this as I work with the first ruffle.
I groan, (as I pray for the recipient), I cannot believe I have to do this again.

But you know me.
I will finish.
I was fighting with the needles and Al saved me.
She told me to use 2 size 7 circulars so that
I could lessen the tension.

So you are looking at the beginning of one needle and the end of another in this image.

In my technology corner today........

I used the ring tone on my very own cell phone
that is crickets chirping.
I love that sound.
Well real crickets have been chirping here finallY!
Thus when someone calls the phone, I haven't been answeing.
Im cricket confused.

So I've paid 3.00 and bought a ring tone song.
Now I can aggrivate everyone else when it rings out.
Which is hardly ever anyhow.....
Choices were limited,
but I choose Kenny Chesney Out Last Night.

What is your ring tone?
I'll talk to you in the comments. :)

My ring tone used to be "Singing in the Rain", but now it's the theme from The West Wing (I'm so hip, aren't I?). My old phone let me use Becky's flute playing and Katie's singing for ringtones, but my current won't.

Your ruffles are beautiful. I know how far around it seems when you get to the ruffle part!

Sounds like a great ringtone. I love Kenny Chesney. My ringtone is the sound of an old rotary-style phone ringing. (brr-ring brr-ring). A little strange but no one ever confuses my phone ringing with theirs.

I am confused, is that a spot on your beautiful knitting? Why aren't you freaking out?

Whatever you're knitting looks so pretty -- love ruffles! Can't wait to see what it is.
My ringtones are different for all my 'peeps' ;-). My daughter and oldest granddaughter are "I Do Believe in Fairies" (from "Peter Pan"), my son is "Erin Shore" (by The Corrs), and my husband is "Trouble in Shangri La" (by Stevie Nicks) ;-). They make me smile!

I have the Mickey Mouse March! M-I-C, K-E-Y, M-O-U-S-E! Mickey Mouse! Mickey Mouse....

And I have a ring back, too so when people call and I don't answer right away, Mickey is telling them to hold on and he'll try to find me.

I left my ring tone on the default setting. I really should pick something more unique.

Mine is also the default. My cell phone doesn't loom large in my life, to be honest. As for uniqueness, since everyone else has fancy ones, the default is unique.

Love the ruffles. Love that you figured out who Tom is. He is so funny and excited that he won.

I love fun ringtones! I wish I had one right now but I don't... but when my boyfriend and I started dating I had Michael Jackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel" as a ringtone just for him :) Now that song always makes me think of him!

Your ruffles are beautiful!!

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
